Random Thoughts.....
Okay, Okay....I have been getting worse and worse about actually putting pictures and updates on the blog....I promise there is good reason...but you're right there is really no excuse! Here is a little bit of what Preston and the family have been up to lately!!

Posing for a "photo op" with friend Mallory.....the two little ones with Mallory's Mommy, Emily took me out for lunch for the big 30th birthday....Yes, that is one of the many reasons I have been absent from blogging....I am old...and depressed....:) Oh, I am just kidding...30 isn't that bad!
Storytime with Megan at one of our weekly playgroups....look at all of our great listeners....okay--this really only lasted maybe a minute or two for all of them to stay content...but hopefully they will all get better!
We are having "color" playdates at our other playgroup and this was BROWN day...what an awesome idea!!! Preston is a little young to know all of his colors, but I really think this exposure by the older kids is helping!
Of course, one of Preston's favorite activities is still talking on the phone...I think he talks to his "papa" and "nana" more than Mommy does these days....Oh, and check out the cute PJ's--aren't they the truth "If I'm not happy, Nobodys happy"
This is a total RANDOM pic...just to illustrate Mr. Preston's cuteness and his continued fondness of hats....
Speaking of fondness, we ALL know Preston loves to eat...and Ice Cream is on top of the list...He received this cool Ice cream holder from Nana and Papa and thoroughly enjoys now feeding himself his own cone...It really is a "nifty" invention and keeps the mess somewhat contained!
We also celebrated Preston's cousin's first communion a few weeks back...Aren't Preston and his cousin's Madison and Ainsley adorable all dolled up!!
Enjoying the "feast" afterwards...notice Preston is sitting on a "big boy" chair and feeding himself...he enjoys doing this quite often as opposed to the highchair...where oh where has my baby gone!!
Chillin' with daddy's side of the family at the gift opening...we are also working very much with Mr. P on sitting patiently and quietly...he is doing okay for a toddler but not as well as Daddy would like...oh well!
well almost all of them....it took Mallory a bit to warm up...she was though in fact the only girl there...so she was quite tough hanging with the boys!
He did love the trip---he talks about the BIG RED TRUCKS all the time....and the hat....well looks like we might need to go back and get another one...his is already worn out!
It didn't appear they minded the snuggle time...
Well, Daddy was suprised to hear of the events...he is after all still at work....but would be returning on Wednesday afternoon...the approximate time the Dr told us on Wednesday morning that we would be released as long as Preston continued eating and drinking for lunch...he did great for breakfast.....go figure...isn't that how this story has worked thus far! Well, Preston decided he had enough of Daddy get out of taking care of him...and decided to extend his stay by not eating or drinking anything at lunch....Then Preston was told, he still was going to have to go home after dinner (even if he didn't eat or drink) as long as he hadn't puked....well he wouldn't have it any other way...the dinner tray came in the door...and the smell alone made him puke all over....guess he really wanted to see Daddy in the crib with him....
It was filled the coolest looking Easter Basket ever...from none other than Nana and Papa.....Really ...I don't think the Easter Bunny (or Mommy) could top this homemade creation....Thankfully Nana and Papa said Preston could open it early...therefore he enjoyed it for a few days prior to infestation...
We colored Easter eggs.....Okay, Mommy and Daddy colored the eggs...But Preston did a great job adding the sticker "faces" to the eggs....He was very particular on where each one went!
We attended "TWO" Easter egg hunts....and Preston came home with more EGGS and candy than even Mommy knew what to do with! For those of you wondering, Mommy and Daddy in no way, shape, or form helped pick up an egg....our only requirement by Preston was to carry the bucket and to keep up...Man was he quick!
Preston also received a special present from his other gramma and grampa, his cousins' Madison and Ainsley and his buddies Jackson and Grace...Seriously--Mommy doesn't remember receiving one chocolate bunny..(boo hoo...I know...a little exaggeration...), let alone numerous presents...yes...case in point...spoiled...but he definetely deserved it due to the "BUG" that was about to hit him...
Oh yeah, let's not forget the presents the Easter Bunny left....or the Bunny's Egg hunt...or from Mommy and Daddy....Yep' Spoiled!
